Thoroughly Underrated Games You Probably Should Play – 2. Lucidity
Hello! And welcome to the long over due second episode of Thoroughly Underrated Games You Probably Should Play, a series of articles from The Newb Review where we recommend some bloody good games that have been far over-shadowed, often by games with lower quality, but higher marketing budgets. Episode 1 (an article on the fabulous game Henry Hatsworth in The Puzzling Adventure, found here: http://rt.nu/9jissu) came out some time ago. However, as something of a new year's resolution, our very own Crofterz has made it his mission in life to unearth these valuable gems for you, our beloved newbs.

The Newb Review: Festive Edition
It's quite possibly the least festive Christmas podcast ever concieved, however we test the very limits of polite conversation and bandwidth to bring you the Newb Review Christmas special. This week Braindead_hero is joined by Mightyles, Crofterz, Joefeesh and Tom01255 talk for a long time about nothing in particular.
We here at newbreview would also like to take the opportunity to say we believe whole heartedly in equality. We belittle all races, sexualities and beliefs equally.
NOTE: We apologise for the low quality of the audio this is due to skype being exceptionally busy at the time of recording

Review: Left 4 Dead 2
Game: Left 4 Dead 2
Format: PC, XBox 360
Developer: Valve
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Few games this year seem to have been more contentious than Left 4 Dead 2, announced at E3 2009 to what seemed to be a reaction of joy from one section of the crowd, and calls for boycott from another. The key concern from those who were not happy about the announcement was over the short time between the original game, released last year, and this title. The worry was that it would essentially be a full price expansion pack as opposed to a proper sequel (Even though the distinction between the two is hazy at best). So how does Left 4 Dead 2 compare to the original? Is it a full sequel or just an expensive expansion pack?
